Newcastle United striker Shola Ameobi has taken up the role of an impact substitute in recent weeks for the Magpies.

With Papiss Cisse scoring seven goals in seven games, Demba Ba being Newcastle’s top scorer this season and Hatem Ben Arfa in a rich vein of creative form, the Toon’s front trio is pretty settled right now.

That means that Ameobi has had to make do with a place on the bench, but his love for the club will ensure that he won’t moan or complain, and will just get on with the task assigned to him by Alan Pardew.

The 30-year-old has already done his bit for the Magpies this season, with his very late leveller against Sunderland at St James’ Park one of Newcastle’s most important goals of the season.

Shola the Mackem Slayer will be enjoying Newcastle’s winning form of last as much as anyone, and here is Ameobi tucking into a slice of pizza after the match against Liverpool last weekend…

The photo was taken by Joel Faddy, who is supporting a Wembley to Sowetto charity project, and shows that Shola’s diet might not be as strict as some other players!

    Suppose it explains why he always looks lazy, he’s got indigestion from the fast-food.

    All the players get pizza, it’s part of the post-match food in the dressing room. Probably made by the team chefs though – and a lot healthier than a dominos
